Q&As, Panels and Live Events

Keira Knightley

I’m always thrilled by live events. As cinema-going is increasingly under threat, they’re a brilliant way of adding a special dimension to a night out at the pictures, giving audiences something they just can’t get at home.

So if you’re looking for a host for your post-screening QnA with the biggest stars or the newest talents, you’re in the right place. Together, we can really boost the reputation of your cinema or your movie, and directors, actors and producers can make sure their film gets off to the very best start.

My live presenting skills flourish on stage before special introductions, panel discussions, awards ceremonies or masterclass career retrospectives. These are occasions where I can act as the ideal connection between the audience and the star guests.

It’s literally bringing the film to life, allowing movie-goers insights and access to behind-the-scenes stories which add huge value to the experience and open up the film to fresh interpretations and focusing the film’s themes and message.

If you need a red carpet taken care of, a live satellite link-up anchored or an awards ceremony hosted, please get in touch.

Natacha Antolini, French Institute and Ciné Lumière

“Jason regularly hosts events for the French Institute and Ciné Lumière, from on-stage Q&As with film talents to live streamed interviews with leading figures of the arts, philosophy or politics. His command of the topics and ease at public speaking, his ability to adapt to a diversity of speakers, his communicative warmth and sense of humour, greatly contribute to the success of our events. It is always a great pleasure to work with him.”

Stuart Brown, Head of Events and Programme, BFI

“Jason has been on our A list of on stage hosts for a long time.

He brings an excellent all round knowledge of contemporary and retrospective cinema but can also be relied upon to go the extra mile in terms of fully researching the subject matter. He also brings a warmth, insight and most crucially, a style that puts talent at ease. The quality and variety of names he has hosted at BFI Southbank speaks for itself in terms of how highly we rate Jason, Peter Fonda, Lorraine Bracco, Catherine Deneuve, Anna Karina, Ray Winstone, Viggo Mortensen, Joan Collins…”

Paul Wise, Everyman Group

“For many years now, Jason has been our favourite host for live Everyman QnA’s.

Whilst having an amazing expertise, there is always a space for a little good humoured mischief, and a keen sense that our audience are there to be entertained as well as informed.”
